VGM Signs Deal with Brightree

Brightree, Inc., and The VGM Group have signed an agreement designed to help VGM members move their operational efficiencies and functions to a higher, more effective level.

The 10-year partnership deal will include VGM's U.S. Rehab division.

Said VGM founder Van G. Miller, "This alliance could not come at a better time for our members. Given the many pressures of today's market, providers must work harder and smarter, and this partnership will provide everything they need to be successful."

VGM President Ron Bendell said of the partnership, "Users are increasingly looking to the Internet to streamline their operations, and Brightree is the undisputed leader in Internet-based business management solutions. Through this partnership, we intend to create a large, virtual VGM/Brightree 'community' that can leverage a wealth of services that no individual provider could ever assemble alone."

In the news release that announced the partnership, Brightree indicated its Internet-based business management solution will connect VGM members with manufacturers, Medicare, private payors and outsourcing partners in an easy-to-use system.

"VGM and Brightree are a perfect match for each other," explained Brightree President/CEO Dave Cormack. "Both organizations place an extremely high emphasis on customer care and continually look for modern, cost-effective solutions to elevate the success of our customers. By making a long-term commitment to each other, we can accelerate the pace of introduction and significantly raise the bar on the products and services that we deliver to our customers."
